I think Bruce already asked for _comments_ about packages that are known to build with 7.3.

If you are that person, then I will support giving you editorial privileges when you are ready. But just adding packages which no existing editor uses is likely to mean they never get updated and wither on the vine. For Cython, what sort of help do you need ? There are build instructions for gentoo (who are always keen on the [expletive-deleted!:) that is ] Python3, at http://sources.gentoo.org/cgi-bin/viewvc.cgi/gentoo-x86/dev-python/cython/cython-0.18-r1.ebuild?view=markup and for fedora at http://pkgs.fedoraproject.org/cgit/Cython.git/log/ ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-dev FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
